I keep being complimented by the people I see regularly in my life. I thought that would end sooner, but so far so good.

I was sitting in the hospital waiting room today and some people were asking if it would bother me if they held their weight watchers meeting in there. I said .I didn't mind at all (My wife was having a hernia repair is all). I mentioned that I knew the leader of the group and she asked me, " Did you used to have a weight problem?". Like it was past tense. I don't think of it as that and that it may still be a struggle day by day, but what a compliment !!!!!!!!

Made my day!:rolleyes:

Wow! What a great compliment! I will have a hard time not hugging a person that ever asks me that question.

I'm a teacher, and I had my surgery last April at the end of our semester. The incoming freshmen still look really confused when one of my prior students says something complimentary to me--because they don't know me at 300+ pounds (thank goodness!).

I'm with you, though--I would be celebrating up a storm if someone asked me that!!

someone at work told me the other day....man you're losing weight, I can see it in your face. That really felt good when usually people like to pat me on the stomach and say "twins??" lol

that must have felt great ... !!!!
